In this new Kobe A.D basketball shoes, Kobe makes his presence felt again with the Mamba Mentality: Fearless, Passion, Optimism, Detached and Honesty. Represented in 5 colors that symbolizes his strength and basketball IQ.
Five strong traits that made him to what he is now and also garnered respect from the veterans in the NBA up to rookies who grew up watching him ball. Interestingly it can also represent the number of Championship rings he wear on his fingers.
Did Kobe perfect his ball skills?
“There’s no such thing as perfection in basketball,” says Bryant. “Perfection is minimizing mistakes. Digging deep and being honest with yourself, where you are, where you want to be and how you can get there allows one to process and accept shortcomings in order to improve,” says Bryant.
The five KOBE A.D. colorways connecting to color psychology are available globally starting August 24 as a nod to both of Bryant’s uniform numbers. 8 and 24 that is.
